      I'm actually realizing my question is silly.

      I guess what I was asking if there was a way to hide information from the metadata if it wasn't defined (like what happens before you scrape, there's no info except for the ROM name). So, if the system couldn't read a line of data, it wouldn't show anything.

      But of course it won't show anything. It'll just display what's in the field, and if the field's blank, it should just show nothing at all.

        This looks cool, will it handle video previews?

          It's built for that! In the Arkanoid preview, that's a scraped video.

            Dig it! Really love the video combined with a prominent picture too. Great work!

              This is looking awesome. Love the way the system view is laid out. Very sharp.

                Next question: is there a way to put the highlighted game name in plain text somewhere? Is that a variable?

                  @pacdude Not that I know of. The name only exists in the gamelist.

                        I asked one of our great coders the same question a few days ago and the answer is: No.
                        But it might be possible that we will get that when grid view arrives, because, from what I've read, that comes with md_gamename and maybe that will be available outside of grid view.

                        A workaround might be to use a second gamelist just as big enough to show one game. I just thought of that so I don't know if it's possible to even have one element multiple times.

                            @ectoone I'm pretty sure you can only display a single gamelist.
